concentration adjustment.
NOTE: When the chlorinating cycle ends, only the LED above
the On-off button displays green flashing. The chlorinator will go
into a standby mode, and will turn itself back on in 24 hours to
continue its daily chlorine production.
IMPORTANT: Never use the pool if chlorine level is more
than 3ppm. Do not operate the chlorinator while the pool is
in use or occupied.
• Always use a test trip to test the chlorine level before entering
or using the pool. If the chlorine level is too high, wait until the
chlorine level drops below 3ppm before using the pool or
operating the chlorinator.
• Heavy pool usage and higher temperatures may require higher
chlorine output (longer operating time) to maintain proper free
available chlorine residuals.
• If a power outage occurs or the power cord is unplugged for
more than 48 hours, then the chlorinator operating time will
have to be reset.
NOTE: LED indicater will not off under sleep mode if it has
been turned in before.
CHLORINATOR STATIONARY MOUNTING (OPTION)
Chlorinators are required to stay in a permanent upright position
according to the regulations in some areas. In this case, mount
the product to a platform as shown in the drawings.
Fig. 1
1. Unplug the electrolytic cell line cord. Unscrew the lock nut of
the flow sensor counter-clockwise and disconnect the flow
sensor signal line from the flow sensor. Then screw out the
four screws and put aside the electrolytic cell. (See Fig.1)
2. The mounting holes are 6.4mm in diameter and spaced
180mm apart. Use two bolts and lock nuts with a maximum of
6.4mm in diameter. Then reinstall the electrolytic cell and other
parts. (See Fig.2)
NOTE: The total assembly must exceed 18kg.

MAINTENANCE

CAUTION: You must ensure the chlorinator is unplugged
before any maintenance begins or severe risk of injury or
death exists.

Flow Sensor Cleaning

1. Unscrew the lock nut of the flow sensor, disconnect the signal
line, and remove them from flow sensor.
2. Clean the deposits and debris on the surface of the flow
sensor with a garden hose. (use a plastic brush if necessary,
but never a metal one) (See Fig. 3)
3. Reinstall the flow sensor signal line, and the lock nut.
NOTE: Do not over tighten.

Electrolytic Cell Cleaning

To extend the life and performance of the electrolytic cells, it is
recommended to inspect it every 3 months and clean it if
necessary. Follow the cleaning instructions below.
Fig. 2
1. Turn off the chlorinator and unplug the power cord from the
electrical outlet.
2. Remove the debris screens from the inside of the pool and
insert the stopper plugs in the pool's inlet and outlet valves or
close the connection valves.
3. Remove all other components connected to the electrolytic
cell and separate it from the chlorinator.
4. Look inside the electrolytic cell to inspect for scale formation
(light colored crusty or flaky deposits). If yes, go to step 5,
otherwise, go to step 6.
5. Try to flush the deposits and debris with high a pressure
garden hose. Soak the cell in a vinegar solution for 2-3 hours if
flushing does not work.
6. Reinstall the electrolytic cell (Reset the operating time)
NOTE: Do not use any metal tools, they may scratch the coating
off the plates.
NOTE: A buildup on the cell indicates that there is an unusually
high calcium level in the pool. If this is not corrected, you have to
frequently check and clean the cell. To avoid this, always keep
your pool chemistry at the recommended levels. See "Pool Water
Chemistry" for reference.

STORAGE

1. Unplug the power cord from the electrical outlet.
2. After all water is drained from the pool, disconnect the
chlorinator from the hoses.
3. Air-dry the chlorinator before storage. It is recommended to
visually inspect and clean the electrolytic cell at this time.
4. It is recommended you store the chlorinator in its original
package in a warm dry place.
Bestway TEST STRIPS (Included in The Package)
®
Test Strips can test the "Free Chlorine", "pH" and "Total Alkalinity"
levels at the same time. Use as follows.
1. Dip one strip into water, no more than 46cm (18") below the
water surface and remove immediately.
2. Hold strip level for 15 seconds to avoid reactant dripping from
one test pad to another.
NOTE: Do not shake off excess water.
3. Compare results immediately, lining up the 3 test pads to the
easy color match chart on the bottle.

TROUBLESHOOTING

Bestway strives to provide the best trouble-free chlorinator on
the market. If you experience any problems, do not hesitate to
contact your authorized dealer or us.
Here are some helpful tips to help you to diagnose and rectify
common sources of trouble.
Probable Causes
Problems
- Insufficient operating time

Solutions
- Increase the operating time per day. See "Operation Instructions "
- Test the salt level with a test strip, and adjust asneeded. See "Pool
Water Chemistry"
- Use a pool cover when the pool is not in use and/or when the unit isoperating
- Increase the operating time per day. See "Operation Instructions "
- Inspect the cell and clean it if necessary. Refer to Maintenance part.
- Drain about 20 to 25% of the pool Water and add fresh water to
decrease the calcium hardness. Visually inspect the electrolytic cell
for scale buildup and clean the electrolytic cell if necessary
- Check if the power cord is loose or not connected properly
- Contact Bestway Service Center for replacement
- Press any button to view the status of the LED lights
